Should auld acquaintance be forgot?
They likely should, but they will not.
They post on Facebook twice a day
And just refuse to go away.
If in their travels they see snow,
They're certain that you'll want to know.
They photograph their menu picks.
And forward screeds on politics.
They broadcast their reviews of shows
And links to kitty videos.
And should this stream just briefly fail,
Some scammer good at hacking mail
Will pose as one requesting you
Send urgent cash to Timbuktu.

Forgot your auld acquaintance now?
For shame – unless you teach me how.
